RISIS Objectives

RISIS2 gathers 18 partners aiming to transform the field of STI studies into an advanced research community.

This step change is achieved by:

(i) developing an e-infrastructure that supports full virtual transnational access by researchers,

(ii) providing a vastly enlarged set of services tailored to field-specific needs (for problem-based integration of datasets, for exploring open data, and for
supporting analytical capabilities of researchers),

(iv) developing new datasets on 4 key issues for research and policy (social innovation, non technological innovation, the role of PhDs in society, portfolios of public funding instruments).

The current datasetscover five critical dimensions: ERA dynamics (3 datasets), firm innovation dynamics (3 datasets), public sector research (3 datasets), research careers (3 datasets) and a repository on research and innovation policy evaluations.

Going to the items datasets and platforms, interested researchers will find adequate information on each dataset, its characteristics and examples of recent use. Going to Vocabularies will enable to see the developments that RISIS plans for fostering harmonisation and integration.
